Off grid VW Crafter Campervan "Dumbo"

It’s with a mixture of pride and sadness that I offer ‘Dumbo’ my beloved VW Crafter Campervan for sale. This van has been my pride and joy, my trusted companion on countless adventures, and a cozy home away from home. I’ve poured my heart into making it the perfect travel home, and now it’s time for someone else to enjoy the freedom and joy it brings. This Campervan has been lovingly maintained and upgraded to ensure it’s ready for any adventure. The solar/electrical system allows for off-grid living, and the interior has been thoughtfully designed to provide all the comforts of home. Its a real head turner, people are always impressed by it and it gets many compliments.
